At the end of this month, (Halloween), I will be 73 years old and going into my 13th of living with not one but two cancers. Fortunately, my current treatment(s) has managed to keep my cancers from growing and/or spreading; although, that could change at any time.
MY TREATMENT
Infusions Side Effects of Treatments
Rituxan nausea
Cytoxin vomiting
Fludara night sweats
Triandra fatigue
Opdivo loss of appetite
Yervoy squamous carcinomas
IVIG sleeplessness
sebaceous cysts
Surgery day sweats
Foot apathy
Neck depression
Top of head/forearm anxiety
thyroid damage
Pills possibly contracting melanoma
Imbruvica (2 X 140 mg daily)
Radiation
6 concentrated 20 minute sessions
After 10 years of monthly infusions in my arms, one of my experiences was painful so I decided to have a PORT installed. This PORT should be good for 10-20 years, using it once a month and using alternating openings since it is a DUAL PORT.
